That's essentially it, yes. If I start it manually, it will sit waiting. If I add the device, usb0 pops up and is usable. If I remove the device, usb0 disappears but, upon reinsertion, the restored usb0 is missing the IP addresses. This may, I well realise, not be ifplugd's domain and therefore not ifplugd's problem. > In your configuration, the sequence of events should go roughly like the > following: > > * When the usb device is attached, udev assigns it the name usb0 and > runs /etc/hotplug.d/net/ifplugd.hotplug with ACTION=add. > * /etc/hotplug.d/net/ifplugd.hotplug runs '/etc/init.d/ifplugd start > usb0' and ifplugd is started on that interface. > * If a link beat is detected, (you can run ifplugstatus to check this > manually), "ifup usb0" is executed by ifplugd. > > When the device is detached, udev runs /etc/hotplug.d/net/ifplugd.hotplug > with ACTION=remove, which in turn runs /etc/init.d/ifplugd stop usb0, > and ifplugd is stopped for that interface. > > At this point, it appears that manual invocation of the scripts does in > fact work, so perhaps udev is not kicking things off? > > What do the logs say immediately after adding and removing the device? > You should be seeing something like .. > > Mar 12 12:37:22 aries ifplugd.hotplug[5561]: Invoking ifplugd for wlan0 > Mar 12 12:46:48 aries ifplugd.hotplug[5777]: Stopping ifplugd for wlan0 Interestingly, I only see this: Mar 25 15:35:18 ijtihad ifplugd.hotplug[31462]: Invoking ifplugd for usb0 when I start ifplugd by hand using ACTION= etc., irrespective of the device being present or not. There is, from that moment onwards, nothing from ifplugd when I add or remove the device. The kernel messages for the device read like this: Mar 25 15:39:16 ijtihad kernel: usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 6 Mar 25 15:39:17 ijtihad kernel: usb 3-1: Product: SL-5500 Mar 25 15:39:17 ijtihad kernel: usb 3-1: Manufacturer: Sharp Mar 25 15:39:17 ijtihad kernel: usb 3-1: SerialNumber: 400002000001 Mar 25 15:39:17 ijtihad kernel: usb0: register 'zaurus' at usb-0000:00:02.1-1, Sharp Zaurus SL-5x00, ee:23:9a:8e:15:cf For removal: Mar 25 15:46:51 ijtihad kernel: usb 3-1: USB disconnect, address 6 Mar 25 15:46:51 ijtihad kernel: usb0: unregister 'zaurus' usb-0000:00:02.1-1, Sharp Zaurus SL-5x00 And that's it. Oh, and a link beat is detected for usb0 when the device is inserted Cheers, J
